 Internship China
 PLEASE CHOOSE A PROGRAM : PROGRAM: Improve your language by undertaking an internship abroad. Internships abroad can be organized in the hotel and catering industry, business administration, marketing, engineering, IT, etc. Internships are generally unpaid, so there are not summer jobs.
UNPAID INTERNSHIP PLACEMENT:
An internship is a temporary, short and supervised professional experience in which trainees, who usually study in a University or a Business school, carry out a practical work placement as part of their education. Students on unpaid internships don’t have an employee status nor a work contract. Internships are unpaid; students may receive a training allowance, which covers some of their living expenses. Please note that this internship allowance is usually not guaranteed; it depends on the host company. Internships should not be considered as paid jobs. An internship agreement may be signed, depending on the country and the student’s needs. Students must be prepared to fund their entire internship abroad.
ELIGIBILITY: depends of destination (age and geographical origin of the student may vary).
Students applying for an internship abroad should have:
- the wish to improve their language skills;

- at least an intermediate level in the language studied and used on the workplace;
- some previous experience or skills in the work field requested or offered.
Specific requirements are indicated on each program description.
Depending on the program, it may be requested for the participant to be a full time student in his/her home country.
Trainees should understand that these programs are not designed for earning money, or earn some savings to bring back home, like a job abroad. These programs are educational language programs, in which the student gets language improvement and professional experience.
